Emaciated Mare, Matilda, Daisy, Betsy March 3 -6 Update
March 3rd
The vet bills have arrived. Betsy Rose’s bill is $579 which is for x-rays, exams, nerve blocks, various lab work, etc. She is IR and she does have Cushings. The good news is that she is better. The bad news is that we need to get her vet bills paid. Donations can be made to our PayPal address: bhfer or various ways through our website at www.bhfer.org. No amount is too small. Please mark you donation for "Betsy’s Vet Bills." We really need help with this. Thank you!
Please put my mask back on Auntie Barb – I don’t want to get in trouble!"
All of the little ones will be getting clipped soon. CaryLou will be getting his bad boy style. It’s supposed to be 80 degrees tomorrow!
Dr. Mangan was here this past Friday to check on, and treat, Daisy. We are seeing positive changes! The tumor near the left eye is quite a bit smaller as is the one on the right. She had another BCG injection and we are still treating her with a topical and giving her supplements. Keep believing!
JoJo and Matilda – slightly different in size. lol
This photo was taken when we were on our big adventure in the main paddock collecting feed tubs.
"It’s all mine?"
They all love the hay wagon!

Handsome is rather, well, handsome! He got a hooficure today. He’s got a visitor coming tomorrow.

The vet feels the mare is not up for much of a transport and the weather has taken a dive. Coggins is done. She is only about 5 miles from us. We have a horse leaving on Monday – Handsome has been adopted! So, we are bringing the mare to the rescue today. She will be fully vetted and evaluated and her rehab started. If anyone would like to help it would be very much appreciated. There is a possible home for her in the works, if the application is approved, once she is strong enough and the vet gives an ok for her to make a two hour trip. If anyone would like to help, it would be greatly appreciated.
If anyone would like to help us to help Sophie, donations can be made to our PayPal address: bhfer or various ways through our website at www.bhfer.org. No amount is too small. We even take donations over the phone by credit card now. Please mark you donation for "Sophie." Thank you!
Welcome to Beauty’s Haven Farm and Equine Rescue Sophie!
Dr. Mangan checked up on Daisy and Matilda today. I’m happy to report that both have improved. Daisy has a way to go, but we are making progress. Come to our ASPCA Help a Horse Day / 6th Annual Celebration of Life on April 26th and meet Daisy’s care team! It will be a great day to learn and ask questions about equine cancer from Dr.’s Mangan, Porter, and Simonson!
